Tulsa, Oklahoma, (TA–W–82,900B). The
Department’s notice of determination
was published in the Federal Register
on November 21, 2013 (Volume 78, No.

At the request of workers and a State
Workforce Official, the Department
reviewed the certification for workers of
the subject firm. The workers are
engaged in activities related to the
supply of order management services, in

other divisions. The worker group
includes off-site workers reporting to
the certified locations.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–82,900, TA–W–82,900A, TA–W–
